Introducing The New Andy's Hobby Headquarter precission plastic nippers

[@gokhanersan8561]

Happiest hobbyist on the internet. Thanks to Andy showing how quickly he builds and paints by skipping the primer step helped me speed up my builds tremendously. (I only prime metals and plastics that need to be painted yellow….When my Tamiya nippers give out I will try Andy’s nippers.

[@AndysHobbyHeadquarters]

Thanks 👍

[@davidcole333]

been using these for several months now and they are top notch. Highly recommended.

[@mikelower7683]

I just bought both of them. Thanks for making them available.

[@Subzero2151]

Fantastic, these will make a nice christmas present to myself :)

[@pretzel1313]

Ooh, I am 100% going to be trying both of these.

[@ColKlink-cf4ds]

I always like Andy's videos - He is a great modeller and communicator. But I also believe he is P.T. Barnum reincarnated. He just needs to show something, and it sells.. What a showman!

[@JohnDora9-95.]

Hello Andy- and AHHQ viewers… Love your builds and tutorials Andy- they restarted my model building during the pandemic after a 48-year absence. And I have built Daily for the past 3.5 years! Thank You! I am also a capitalist and and retired senior manager- with a quarter Billion in sales and over 2000 employees spread over 25-years. Watching You GROW your business- and your KZbin channel has been stunning! Phenomenally Well Done- Congratulations! Look- some of you may get “upset” here- Andy, you haven’t Built anything in weeks- or tutorials: just perpetuating infomercials. Business looks excellent! Have you thought about getting some production help Andy for the Channel- as well as the store and warehouse? Team up. Possible team up with a full time builder (“Sprues & Brews”) using your products and OTHER products? I order and buy from you- ha- I WILL BE buying a set of your new Extreme Nippers! The point is here is to Build MORE- or team up with fabulous builders on Your Channel and Cross Content: easy enough with the internet now. Yes it’s Christmas- time to sell- it was always my busiest time of year at as well- and managed to have a life and produce. Hire production people of some kind- your products are good, excellent. Yet- the gist of your business growth and channel growth stems from your builds. Branch out again. Build other stuff than your own- or Das Werk and Border. Or Giant Scale- I can’t be the only one to miss these things. Cheers to You & Yours- and to All of the AHHQ Crew and Fans-

[@michaelhintzmikesminiature1812]

Nice!!!! Thanks for sharing

[@000NULL]

Oh, nice. These look like a version of the USGS 2.0 nippers. The Blue has an extra nut on the blades top, but at AHQ you get the nice blade sheath!

[@DASCDUDE]

Great set of gear, a must have addition to tools

[@Swellington_]

Damn Andy,you’re doing it man!!

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

Look like good nippers, might have to give these a try. 👍

[@jamescharlton924]

Godhand or disple ones those. I rely on my tamyia ones

[@scottbuildsthemall5124]

Great additions to your product line Andy! Single blade nippers are a true game changer! Just curious what the recommended limit is for sprue diameter after watching the demonstration on the sprue. The ones that I own are designed for up to 3 mm (about 1/8 inch).

[@hsaurid]

Andy, nice nippers. How long is the sharpness expected to last, and how easy is it to touch up the single edge blade?

[@ChromDome]

Other than price, what differentiates these from the similar Godhand or Dspiae nippers

[@randomnickify]

Your edge has an edge :D

[@americanpatriot2422]

Great new tool.

[@christianschiller]

Looks really good

[@donfrandsen7778]

Very cool Andy they look precise and very good quality !!!! Excellent Andy!!!

[@viper29ca]

Had a set of Godhand SPN 120s. First time using them, wanted to see just out flush they would cut, so cut a parts runner. About the 3rd cut and the cutting side of it broke off. Thankfully where I got them from replaced it (despite Godhand offering no warranty on them). For the price of them, they should be able to withstand cutting a parts runner. I still use them, but only for very fine pieces. The el cheapo set from Trumpter (Master Tools) will do about 80% of what the Godhand ones will do, and if I break them, they aren't that expensive to replace. These look like a happy medium between the high end Godhand, and the low end el cheapo Master Tools

[@jimkruszka3817]

just bought one !!

[@MichalKaczorowski]

Any news about next 1/16 kits? :)

[@michaelgallasch6472]

I have a Nipper vom DSPIAE, really a nice piece of tool. The replacement will be a AHHQ Nipper ;)

[@charleslaine]

These should be branded as “Andy’s Hand”. 😆

[@gregcooke3260]

Will they be available in Australia?

[@w.p.958]

Awesome, I will buy them from you when my current Godshand nipper wears out!!!

[@lesgl]

Sometimes it's not so much that the nipper damages the part..it's trying to clean up the part to remove the nub left behind that breakage occurs..so the cleaner cut like the last Nipper shown is going to save the day

[@zapper302]

Wow the extreme sold out fast

[@tony_bird]

i wouldn’t personally cut thicker runners with it as over time it’ll break the blade

[@manondemaagd4019]

Hi Andy, What set would you recommend for clear parts?

[@michaeljenner9906]

Tamiya

[@marcblackburn5920]

Great new product! When is the website going to start carrying Airfix?

[@AndysHobbyHeadquarters]

We do carry Airfix

[@stevecam724]

I use the Godhand nippers, $55USD, and they are sensational, I hope Andy's are as good ☺👍

[@blueline308]

Yep, If they are a Godshand replacement, I will be happy. Of, course it is virtually impossible to get an honest review on KZbin.

[@DollaDShciits]

Well for being the most expensive extremely overpriced nippers I would hope there atleast sensational.

[@stevecam724]

@@DollaDShciits sounds like you don't know mate, sounds like you are just a fanboy sitting in the bleachers mindlessly cheering. Don't get me wrong, if Andy's nippers are just as good that's fantastic and I'm sold. I own GH nippers and in the years I've had them they haven't lost their edge, money well spent.

[@michaeljenner9906]

​@DollaDShciits tell us you know nothing about GH nippers without telling us.

[@DollaDShciits]

@@michaeljenner9906 seems like everyone is an expert and you did tests comparing it to every others nippers that are a fraction of what those cost. I'm not saying there bad but I am saying I hope godhand supplies a courtesy spit first. Look at all the GH fan boys that show up when nippers are mentioned.

[@jayoh45]

how do these compare to god hands?? i bought a pair of god hands just to cut parts from miniart kits but they broke after being dropped once

[@zachnar0125]

NICE!

[@relentlesstorm]

Have a pair of red handled God Hands and now I have an even better blue pair of AHH Nippers (HN4s) on the way!

[@MODELMAN131]

Andy great video! Q: could you do a video on how to do German/ panzer grey?

[@ericverpeten8503]

😍😍👌👌

[@crackerbarrel6965]

These look like the God Hand nippers I’ve got. I wouldn’t doubt same manufacturer.

[@shanechapman3567]

Ouch I can't spend that much on cutters I only spend like 10 dollars and they work just fine

[@olebond0071]

Like the tools. Can I convert your Sherman easy 8 1/16 & the Tiger 1/16 scale to RC? Or no. Let me know thks Bob.

[@relentlesstorm]

Tracks and suspension on both are workable so theoretically with modifications you could convert to RC. Insides are mostly hollow and there's plenty of room.

[@michaeljenner9906]

KZbin research goes a long way.

[@normandixon4571]

that nippers would work great on my m10 model if I could get my hands on the model its not in store yet in Germany cry

[@canuck64]

I would really love a set of the extreme but .... at $39.99 with an added $39.99 just for the shipping is a bit much...plus the currency exchange, that set of nippers would run me up at 110$ CDN.

[@gavrelle1917]

These nippers look the business. I hope they are stocked by a uk retailer. Getting from the main site in Germany is pretty impractical ( cost of delivery !!)

[@darrylmasters5032]

guess just don't use them on 1:24 cutting fuselage off..I always get confused on where and when...big sprue, clear parts etc

[@scaleartsg]

Andyhand nippers!

[@daveoreilly7149]

Wish we could get these I Australia. Any chance of an Asian Andys?

[@BiohazardDingleberry]

Well into winter and still no 1/16 release for “fall”. 😑 I’m sure the “winter” release will be next summer!

[@2amberror]

Are these the rebranded original GodHand nippers? Because they have very very similar design. Or are these only cheap chinese copy of GodHand?

[@ApexPredatorWithSungGlasses]

Errrrm ok, but what's the equivalent to the Godhand?

[@whya2ndaccount]

Unsure why anyone would buy the "3"s? I suspect shipping to Australia will be dearer than the tool.

[@PeterFulford]

The "3"s are $20 cheaper and the blade will (probably) be more durable and it's good enough for most folks. A lot of Gundam folks have moved away from the extreme price nippers to good nippers and using a glass nail buffer to avoid stress marks on the models.

[@whya2ndaccount]

@@PeterFulford OK I good for the "Gundam people" I guess. Sorry, but I have no idea where they come from.

[@PeterFulford]

@@whya2ndaccount Just to be clear: these single edged style nippers did spring from Gundam modelers but plenty of non-Gundam modellers have tried them and find them surprisingly effective for "normal" modeling.

[@whya2ndaccount]

@@PeterFulford OK, but I'm none the wiser as to what a Gundam modeler is, off to Google I guess.

[@jeffadair100]

I really miss the days when you built kits (that weren't your brand) and didn't advertise everything.

[@JohnDora9-95.]

I agree with you- I’m surprised Andy has not addressed this issue- there are solutions here. For each of us that actually make a comment, you can divide by the views and see what percentage actually comment- very low: BUT Representing an equal number of viewers per comment would be a fair statistical bit of data; i.e., there are THOUSANDS who agree with this viewpoint spread out over the past few years since the excessive infomercials began. A little is fine- what about all of the great new Tamiya re-release armor and aircraft models w/low special pricing, and added vehicles etc. I’m finding this data on other channels and for many other 1:35 Armor and 1:48 aircraft - at 1/5 to 1/4 quarter the price- that we can actually FIT in our homes… I buy from Andy’s HHQ- and really like the man and his shop AND HIS TEACHING ABILITIES. I don’t see him responding to questions like yours- or mine and others. See what what happens… I’ll be ending my subscription soon if it’s more of the same. Too bad.

[@oilguygamer1744]

Hi, Andy look like pretty good nippers, however, your pricing is too similar to other quality tools. For example, for about $30 you can also get the Dspeie STX cutters, which are a fantastic set so seems like no real advantage to buying your make. I only mention this because delivery, where I live, can be difficult when buying new products.

[@djstreiker2171]

The same as the Godhand nippers 100% I have the Godhand and the nippers are the best at the time.

[@Autism_central-d9g]
